Faith & Law Seminar 2009 – Roanoke, VA

October 6, 2009 Roanoke, VA / Sponsored by Gentry Locke Rakes & Moore, LLP

A balance of faith and law can be achieved.

Registration for this event is now closed.

Religious organizations encounter many of the same issues that confront other businesses during their lifecycle. We’ve seen this time and time again in our 85+ years of practice. Just as an organization or congregation will grow and change, so will its legal needs, it challenges, and its opportunities.

One uninformed decision can undo decades of service or jeopardize your tax-exempt status. You spend many hours each week attending to the needs of people who turn to you for spiritual guidance.  Shouldn’t you spend a day considering the care and consequences of your organization’s legal needs?

Join the attorneys at Gentry Locke Rakes & Moore for a day designed to inform and assist houses of worship, religious schools, and faith-based long-term care and service agencies in obtaining the best options for the needs of their organization.
